First adjustment Tuesday!
I have no clue what will be done but my impatience is setting in already. I want some REAL difference! My teeth are basically straight with minimal crowding (the 2 teeth on either side of my 2 front teeth are slighty back farther than they should be and they are behind the front teeth just a smidge on the sides. Ugh....hard to describe! Well, that is getting better already (a little anyway....when I say a little I wonder if I am simply imagining it better!) My main issue is that my arch is not a nice arch , it is more of a V than a C (because of these 2 front teeth being more dominant).
It looks funny when I bite because the bottom arch is fine. My teeth were purty but bad me never wore my retainer so here I am again.... The crowding made my C arch a V

My worst fear is that I'll sit in the chair, he'll glance into my mouth and then whip the bib off exclaiming "See ya in another 5 weeks". I know that happens!!
Now my FANTASY is that I get a new industrial strength wire, some wire tires instead of ligs, elastics (which I know happens at the end of treatment but this *is* my fantasy) and my bottom braces!!! (yeah riiiiight!!!!)
Either way I want another one of those tree brushes! hmph!

I also get excited befoe ortho appts! I guess I'm not the only one!
I hoped in the beginning that I would finally get bottom braces all the time! But alas, it took me 19 months to get them! My slow ortho and my complicated case! Don't get discouraged most people don't have to wait that long, its just me!
I hope before every appt. that my ortho will decide I need a new wire or elastics finally! I really hope that happens this Saturday! My bite is really wacky!
Good luck! Keep us posted!
